Original Note:
Misleading & incorrect - digital games have both manufacturing (cost of making the game in the first place) and distribution (Steam fees, Epic fees etc) which are significant. As an example Steam takes up to 30% on every sales as distribution cost for using their platform. https://www.gameshub.com/news/features/how-game-prices-digital-distribution-and-xbox-game-pass-affects-developers-10912/
